A Plague Tale: Requiem is an action-adventure stealth game developed by Asobo Studio and published by Focus Entertainment. It is the sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence (2019), and follows siblings Amicia and Hugo de Rune who must look for a cure to Hugo's blood disease in Southern France while fleeing from soldiers of the Inquisition and hordes of rats that are spreading the black plague. The game was released for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S on 18 October 2022. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Asobo Studio in-house engine. We test using the Ultra preset, DX12 API.

There's no such VRAM limit in A Plague Tale: Requiem though, and the 7600 XT is barely any faster than the RX 7600 here – clearly the engine isn't overly sensitive to the increased clock speed.

The same goes at 1440p, though the 7600 XT does at least give us an 8% lead over the RTX 4060, but it's also 8% slower than the 6700 XT.
